A LARGE GRAY SCHIST RELIEF DEPICTING BUDDHA, A ROYAL DONOR AND SEVERAL ATTENDANTS, ANCIENT REGION OF GANDHARA, 2ND-3RD CENTURY
Superbly carved, standing in slight contrapposto and surrounded by royal donors and attendants, each with hands clasped in front of their chest with their gaze directed at his outstretched right arm holding an alms bowl. The Buddha is dressed in voluminous robes which fall gracefully in well detailed folds. The hems of his alluring robes are gathered in a soft roll clutched by his left hand to keep the garment taut and in place. The serene face with heavy-lidded downcast eyes below gently arched brows centered by a circular raised urna, above full bow-shaped lips forming a subtle smile, flanked by long pendulous earlobes. His hair is arranged in wavy locks over the domed ushnisha.

Provenance: From an old Belgian private collection. Acquired before 1970 and thence by descent in the family.
Condition: Good condition, commensurate with age. Extensive wear, obvious losses, nicks, scratches, small old repairs, signs of weathering and erosion, few structural cracks.

Weight: 103.3 kg (incl. stand)
Dimensions: Height 94.3 cm (incl. stand), 88.8 cm (excl. stand), Width 57.1 cm

Note the hierarchical proportions used by the sculpture, with Buddha double the size of the donor and the attendant figures.

The ancient region of Gandhara was once an important center for trade and religious activities. Carved stone monuments and iconic statuary were created for Buddhist patrons while drawing on Greco-Roman sculptural traditions. The present work is one such example, incorporating the emphasis on naturalism, seen in the treatment of the Buddha’s heavy, monastic robe wrapping around his neck in thick layers and forming U-shaped folds on his legs with a convincing sense of gravity.

This panel alludes to a delightful moment in the life of Buddha, which is retold by Harald Ingholt: “It was routine for the Buddha at a certain time of the day to wander around in quest of food. Once when he was doing this in Rajagriha, with his begging bowl held out before him, he met two small boys playing in the road. One of these moved as if to make an offering, but having nothing else at hand, he took a good fistful of dust and dropped it into the bowl saying that it was barely flour. The Buddha was much impressed by this childish act of piety and prophesied that the boy would become a mighty Buddhist monarch in some future life.” (Gandharan Art in Pakistan, New York, 1959, pp. 80-81). This story was later interpreted to identify the child as the great Buddhist emperor Ashoka (304-232 BC) in a previous life. While the figure of the child, the object of the Buddha and his entourage’s gaze, is now lost, the alms bowl remains partially preserved. Other depictions of this scene are found in ibid., nos. 110-111, and Kurita, Gandharan Art, Volume 1, Tokyo, 1988, pp. 178-181, nos. 351-358, and Sun and He, A History of Gandhara Civilization, Beijing, 2009, pp. 389, nos. 7, 128, 30.
